Want to have a totally unique wedding (just like everyone does)? Then you need to bring in a WOW Factor to your wedding design and vendor selection. We have all attended other weddings. And so, we have a list of things we must-have and the things that are an absolute “no” when it comes to what we want for our OWN wedding. So how are you going to make your wedding event stand out among all of the rest for your guests? Easy – with a jaw dropping, never before seen, really cool, different wedding wow-factor! We have listed some vendors you should consider to bring your wow-factor feature to life.
Food Trucks. If there is an area available at your venue, consider a food truck for a fun alternative during cocktail hour, main meal, or just dessert.
Entertainment Alternative. In addition to a dance floor, or in place of one, give your guests some interesting entertainment. These options could also be used for entertainment during cocktail hour.
1. Casino Tables
2. Dance instructors
3. Trivia Night
4. Karaoke
5. Dueling Pianos
6. Silent Disco
7. Magician
8. Fortune Tellers
9. Tattoo Artist
10. Furry friend, like a donkey or llama
Specialty Rentals. Bring in some truly unique decor pieces to elevate your tablescape, ceremony background, or added seating. A lounge is a great option for guests to relax in during the evening.
Photobooth. Pretty much a staple at every wedding these days, but still widely popular, a photobooth will have guests taking instagram worthy pics all night. Get clever with props and backgrounds.
Bar. Upgrade your bar with high end, customized cocktails that your guests will be trying to recreate for years to come. Other fun option of vehicles that have been retrofitted to transform into a bar or tap.
Sweets. We love a beautiful cake, but there are so many other sweet options to choose from. Pies, cupcakes, donuts on a wall, cotton candy, cookies, ice cream…whether self serve or a hired specialty vendor giving guests an option is always a hit.
Send-off Surprises. Skip the traditional sparklers and go for something new – like smoke flares, streamers or a firework display! And get creative with your get-away car. Maybe a trolly or motorcycle or hot air balloon. Again, be epic!
Be creative and work with your designer to create new, interesting wow-factors that your guests will never forget. Add a personal touch to hone in on the emotions of the day and reflect what is special about your relationship. Wedding days are just as much for the guests witnessing the vows and celebrating with loved ones – give them something to remember. Happy planning!
